                         Your Lucky Day In Hell - Eels

                    From the album, "Beautiful Freak" (1997)

                  --------------------------------------------

                                *LP Version*

                          [Transcribed by TNT SHWE]

Notes:

          Here's a nice Halloween-ish song transcribed especially for 
Halloween night.  The song couldn't come from a freakier band.  The Eels 
are definitley the experts when it comes to delivering cold haunting 
melodies combined with eerie lyrics.  This is one of my favourite tracks off 
their fabulous album.  This one would happily fit into a good horror movie 
and couldn't come at a better time, with the horror genre going retro!  
Go  ahead, I dare you to play this one alone!

          To make the most out of the chords, play all the sections except 
the Choruses with lots of added bass.  Play the Choruses with light sweep 
picking movements.

            Mama crept onto the milkman's hand

          Dm                             F/E

                         Dm
           I never wanna be like you

                           G
           Why can't you see, it's me?
